## Dataset Structure

We show detailed information for up to 5 configurations of the dataset.

### Data Instances

#### default

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 5.00 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 21.36 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 26.37 MB

An example of 'validation' looks as follows.
```
{
    "answer_label": "more",
    "answer_label_as_choice": "A",
    "choices": {
        "label": ["A", "B", "C"],
        "text": ["more", "less", "no effect"]
    },
    "metadata_graph_id": "481",
    "metadata_para_id": "528",
    "metadata_path_len": 3,
    "metadata_question_id": "influence_graph:528:481:77#0",
    "metadata_question_type": "INPARA_EFFECT",
    "question_para_step": ["A male and female rabbit mate", "The female rabbit becomes pregnant", "Baby rabbits form inside of the mother rabbit", "The female rabbit gives birth to a litter", "The newborn rabbits grow up to become adults", "The adult rabbits find mates."],
    "question_stem": "suppose the female is sterile happens, how will it affect LESS rabbits."
}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

#### default
- `question_stem`: a `string` feature.
- `question_para_step`: a `list` of `string` features.
- `answer_label`: a `string` feature.
- `answer_label_as_choice`: a `string` feature.
- `choices`: a dictionary feature containing:
  - `text`: a `string` feature.
  - `label`: a `string` feature.
- `metadata_question_id`: a `string` feature.
- `metadata_graph_id`: a `string` feature.
- `metadata_para_id`: a `string` feature.
- `metadata_question_type`: a `string` feature.
- `metadata_path_len`: a `int32` feature.
